The Cooperative Difference: Built to Serve, Committed to You 

We’re here to serve you. We’ve all heard this phrase countless times. These words may sound generic, but to us—your local electric cooperative—they mean everything.

JOEMC was created to serve our community. Decades ago, neighbors banded together and formed our electric co-op for the common good. In our case, it was the only way the community could bring electricity to the area where there was none. By bringing electricity to rural homes and farms, Jones-Onslow helped open doors to new opportunities, stronger communities, and a better quality of life. That mission-focused heritage is the golden thread woven throughout our history.

Today, we are continuing to power the community. While our focus has remained steady on providing reliable energy to our members, today’s energy landscape and consumer expectations are far different than they were decades ago. That’s why we’re adapting, to keep pace with changing technology, evolving needs, and new expectations.

Being your trusted energy advisor means more than delivering reliable electricity.

It means giving you the information and tools to make informed decisions that can save energy and money. Whether you’re looking for energy-saving tips, rebate opportunities, appliance calculators, or other helpful resources, you’ll find them in the EnergyWise section of joemc.com. Understanding how your home uses energy can help you identify opportunities to reduce energy use and lower your monthly bill.

If you’re considering a rooftop solar installation, we encourage you to visit joemc.com, where you’ll find an unbiased look at both the benefits and considerations. You can even complete a rooftop solar assessment for your home and receive instant information to help guide your decision. Investing in rooftop solar is a significant decision, and understanding the costs, responsibilities, and potential energy savings is essential. Because every home and energy situation is unique, we believe it’s important to look at the complete energy picture before deciding on the solution that’s right for you.

So, the next time you hear us say, “We’re here to serve you,” know that it’s more than a phrase—it’s the commitment that has guided this cooperative since the beginning. Service remains at the heart of who we are. As your cooperative continues to evolve, we’re finding new ways to support our members and provide more options to help power your life.

We’re here whenever you need us. Connect with us online, in person, through our mobile app, or through our social media channels. However you choose to connect, please let us know how we can serve you better.
